The main clinical symptoms of Parkinson disease (PD) are resting tremor, muscle rigidity and bradykinesia. There is currently no effective treatment for PD, and dyskinesia symptoms affect the quality of life of patients with PD. The Chinese medicine therapy used for reinforcing kidney and activating blood circulation in treatment of PD was reported to achieve good clinical effects.

Maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) is an important indicator for cardiac function. This paper reviewed the VO2max and related index applied in the physical training.

Abstract On October 13 2023, the Beijing Economic and Technological Development Area Center for Disease Control and Prevention recAAAAAeived a report from a school indicating an outbreak of fever among students in Class 2, Grade 4. An on-site epidemiological investigation was immediately conducted. A total of 14 cases were reported, all of whom were students, with an attack rate of 34.15%. The onset of illness was concentrated between October 6 and 15, with the main clinical symptoms being fever, cough and fatigue. There were no cases of hospitalization, severe illness or death. Seven cases tested positive for Mycoplasma pneumoniae P1-Ⅱ. Based on the on-site investigation and laboratory test results, it was an outbreak of influenza-like illness caused by Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection. The likely cause of the spread was cases infecting other classmates through respiratory droplets while attending class. The outbreak occurred only in one class and did not spread to neighboring classes. Schools should actively carry out health education to raise awareness among parents for reporting infectious diseases, and strengthen morning and afternoon screenings to improve the sensitivity of identification.

Sperm ultrastructural abnormalities are often associated with sperm motility, the integrity of genetic material, and the fertilization potential. The investigation of sperm ultrastructural abnormalities is based on the evolution of microscopy techniques. In his paper, we review the improvement of the microscopy techniques and the ultrastructure of several specific morphological defects and he apoptotic spermatogenic cells in order to expound the significance of sperm ultrastructural observation in clinical practice. We deem it necessary to analyze the sperm ultrastructure before exploring the pathology and adopting assisted reproductive technology for some special patients with teratozoospermia.

Objective A HPLC method was established for determination of the content of ATST in the aqueous humor of rabbits. MethodsThe mobile phase was consisting of methanol-1％ triethylamine(57:43) and omeprazole (OMZ) as internal standard. The detection was carried out with an ultraviolet detector operated at 235nm. ResultsThere was linearity over the range of 2. 056～41.12 ug/ml in the humor aquosus, r=0.9997. The average recovery of ATST was 94.58 ％. Intra-day and in- ter-day RSD were less than 5 ％ and 10 ％ ( n = 5), respectively. Conclusion The method is reliable. It can be used for the study on the pharmacokinetics of ATST.

Objective To establish a headspace GC method for the determination of residual organic solvents in testosterone cypionate. Methods The residual organic solvents were determined by GC with DB-WAX capillary colum(30 m× 0. 32 mm,0. 25 μm)and FID detector at 230℃,using high purity nitrogen as the carrier gas by headspace sampling. The flow rate was 1. 5 mL·min-1 ,the split ratio was 20:1,the temperature of injection port was 220℃,the headspace heating temperature was 70 ℃,and the headspace balance time was 40 mins. The content of residues was calculated by using n-propanol as the internal standard. Results Four residual solvents were completely separated. There were good linearity for m-ethanol,ethanol,benzene and pyridinein in the ranges of 4. 17-2. 50×103 μg·g-1(R=0. 999 9),4. 18-2. 51×103 μg·g-1(r=0. 999 6),0. 84-172 μg·g-1 (r=0. 998 1),and 2. 95-1. 77×103μg·g-1(r=0. 999 9),respectively. The detection limit was 2.08,1. 23,0.28,and 0. 87 μg·g-1,respectively. The average recovery of methanol,ethanol,benzene and pyridinein was 102. 2%(RSD=4. 0%),99. 6%(RSD=1. 9%),112. 6(RSD=5. 6%),and 98. 9%(RSD=1. 6%),respectively. Conclusion This method is reliable,sensitive, accurate and can be used for the determination of residual organic solvents in testosterone cypionate.

Objective To investigate the possible mechanism of the gap junctional influence on the change in permeability of the blood-brain barrier(BBB)after reperfusion subsequent to cerebral ischemia.Methods In the test laser scanning confocal microscope(LSCM)was used to investigate the change of Cx43 levels and distribution.The MCAO/R model was induced using intraluminal suture technique first described by Longa with a little modification.A total of 60 Wistar rats were divided into 4 groups:the sham-operation group,control group,octanol-treatment group and DMSO vehicle control group. Control group were further divided into seven subgroups at different time points of reperfusion after middle cerebral artery occlusion.To observe the change in permeability of BBB,Evans blue(EB)in the brain tissue was surveyed by the means of EB fluorescent quantitation.Octanol-treatment group and DMSO vehicle control group were done at the point of the peak of permeability of BBB.Octanol,the specific blocker for gap junctions(GJ)was used in an intervention study.To compare the amount of EB with the same point of groups,the influence of octanol on BBB permeability was investigated.Results At 3 h of reperfusion after cerebral ischemia for 2 h,the permeability of BBB began to increase,reached the peak at 24 h of reperfusion and was still elevated at 72 h.The Cx43 expression formed into bigger plague and remained linear disposition in the penumbra after reperfusion subsequent to cerebral ischemia.Octanol group was done at 24 h of reperfusion after cerebral ischemia.The amount of EB of octanol group((4.924?0.296)?g/g)was significantly lower than that of corresponding operation control group(5.543?0.506)?g/g.Conclusions (1)Cx43 expression is concentrated around vessels in brain.The Cx43 forms into bigger plague and the function maybe strengthens after reperfusion.Gap junction might aggravate the disruption of BBB.(2) Octanol,the specific blocker of gap junctions,could effectively prevent the permeability of BBB from increasing and has a protective effect on BBB.

Objective To compare the concentration of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB), MCP-1 and RANTES in peritoneal fluid in women with endometriosis and normal peritonal fluid ,To explore the relationship between these cytokines with pathogenesis of endometriosis. Methods There were 2 groups:the endometriosis group and the control group.Double-antibody sandwich ABC-ELISA technique was adopted for determinating concentration of NF-кB、MCP-1 and RANTES in peritoneal fluid. Results Peritoneal fluid level of NF-κB MCP-1 and RANTES in endometriosis patients was higher than the control group (P < 0.05). NF-κB and MCP-1, NF-κB and RANTES expressed positive correlation by linear correlation analysis in both EMs group and control group , correlation coefficients were 0.385, 0.569(EMs group), 0.474, 0.388(P < 0.05). Conclusions NF-кB、MCP-1 and RANTES are mutual affection and promote endometriosis in the pathogenesis.
